The Search

To call off the search
To admit defeat
This I would do if it was deemed the correct and just thing to do
Our race would be over
To fight on would be unkind and cruel
I wouldn't have the emotional energy to keep picking myself or others off the floor.
I can't help how I feel.
Sometimes my emotions go into overdrive
Dragging down people who I care about deeply.

I want the search to continue with every fibre in my body.
I want the dreams to be a reality.
I want to fight for my beliefs like the fight I know you have inside.
When you can't go no lower you have to begin to look up to the light of day
Any path I choose is going to be filled with heartbreak and pain for someone
I just don't want it to be me
More importantly..
I don't want it to be you
If it was deemed the right thing to do I would take the fall.
